She adorable!

I'd say Calico.  Tortie's don't have any white on them.  A Calico is when you have Tortiseshell coloring with broken patches of white.

I know in countries other than the USA the words are used interchangeably.  I'm in the US, so she's a Calico to me :)

Thank you! I'm also in the US, but I had heard the term Tortie and White before, describing the brindle-ing on a cat rather than large patches of color. 

Either way I'm smitten with her. :D I just don't want to call her the incorrect term hahaha.  I'm so excited to see how she will look as a full grown cat. :D

Last night was our first night with her, and she's definitely a little rascal lol.
